Parents,
November is American Diabetes Month, COPD Awareness Month, Lung Cancer Awareness Month, National Healthy Skin Month, and National Stomach Cancer Awareness Month.
We have added jumping rope to our stretching routine in many of our classes and we will work on it for a good portion of the year. Through the use of balance and coordination, it is a full body exercise that works on brain development and it is good for our heart. In my opinion, swimming is the best exercise for the body, and jump rope is number two.
With our abbreviated week this week--8th Grade will have PE on Monday. We will NOT have Middle School Unified Arts on Tuesday because of Mass. We will pick up with Grade 6 on Monday December 2.
We will play a Thanksgiving game on Monday.
Tuesday's Schedule:
One of our parents (Mrs. Kozenski) has a giant map that she allows us to use each year. The map will be in the gym Tuesday November 26. Each homeroom will have an opportunity to come in and do different activities with the map. We will not be able to be in the gym that Tuesday (fourth grade, Catton homeroom, and second grade are affected). If you child is in those homerooms, please be prepared to go outside for class.
Have a great Thanksgiving!
Be safe to all who are traveling!
Good Luck Rams Teams!

PE Agenda for November 11-15
Parents,
November is American Diabetes Month, COPD Awareness Month, Lung Cancer Awareness Month, National Healthy Skin Month, and National Stomach Cancer Awareness Month.
We have added jumping rope to our stretching routine in many of our classes and we will work on it for a good portion of the year. Through the use of balance and coordination, it is a full body exercise that works on brain development and it is good for our heart.
We will spend a few minutes in middle school classes talking about President's Testing--how it went, goals for quarter 4, and practicing for our quarter four testing. We will also work on movement games--running, balance, teamwork.
We will start to work on relay races within several classes using a beanbag, focusing on teamwork along with running, passing, and catching.
Good Luck Rams Teams!

PE Agenda November 4-8
Parents,
November is American Diabetes Month, COPD Awareness Month, Lung Cancer Awareness Month, National Healthy Skin Month, and National Stomach Cancer Awareness Month.
We have a few make-ups still left on President's Testing, but we have finished in most classes in Grades 3-8.
We will start reviewing numbers and talk about setting goals.
We will add jumping rope to our stretching repretoire in all grade levels. Jumping rope is a lifetime activity, it is good for our heart, and it works on balance and coordination.
We will play movement games and incorporate team relay races using a beanbag in many of our classes. We will be working on running, teamwork, passing and catching during our relay races. The movement games will work on running, teamwork, staying within the lines or on the lines, depending on the game (balance).
Have a great week!
Happy Trick or Treating Tonight!
